Your long-lost Derby kinfolk?


The late Virginia Mart (1920-2000), of Derby and later Humeston, passed these two unidentified photographs on to the Lucas County Historical Society during 1986, part of a small collection of Derby-area ephemera.

Had she known who they were, she'd have identified them. But she didn't, so we archive them with other Derby-related material, hoping someone comes along sometime who recognizes a familiar face. If that's you, leave a comment.

The wedding portrait, a cabinet card in near-pristine condition, was taken at Chloe A. Bolon's studio in Humeston. 



The snapshot-size family portrait had been mounted in an album at some point, then carefully removed. 

Any information would be appreciated!
